Amine Ayoub Jerusalem Post, Feb. 24, 2025 “If you want to know why antisemitism has exploded on US campuses, look no further than Qatar’s grip on education.” For months, I have followed the disturbing rise of antisemitism in US universities, especially after Hamas’s brutal attack on Israel on October 7. But nothing prepared me for the jaw-dropping moment […]

David Christopher Kaufman Commentary Magazine, March 2025 “Jews today are inadvertently upending the notion that whites are immune from racism. Jews may still be considered “white” by the federal government’s census counters. But when it comes to the dynamics behind race and racism, Jews are emerging as a new kind of oppressed minority.” Few progressive maxims […]
Deborah Lipstadt The Free Press, Mar. 2, 2025 Until last week, I had been seriously considering teaching at Columbia University next year as a visiting professor. But I’m now convinced that to do so would be folly—to serve as a prop or a fig leaf. Moreover, I feel doing so would mean putting myself and […]

Jared Malsin, Alexander Ward, and Dov Lieber WSJ, Feb. 12, 2025 “Iran is more exposed than ever to strikes on its nuclear facilities. We have the opportunity to achieve our most important goal—to thwart and eliminate the existential threat to the State of Israel.” U.S. intelligence agencies concluded during the final days of the Biden […]
Jonathan Spyer Jerusalem Post, Feb. 21, 2025 “Iran’s disadvantage cannot be assumed as a now permanent factor in the Mideast strategic picture. Rather, it is an asset that will eventually decline or even disappear, unless exploited.” In a soon-to-be-published article in Middle East Quarterly magazine, Colin Winston, a 30-year veteran of the CIA and former head of […]
Christopher de Bellaigue Foreign Affairs, Feb. 25, 2025 “In Khamenei’s view, what matters is the long term.” Since October 7, 2023, the long arm of Iran has seemingly been everywhere in the crises that have beset the Middle East. With its eye on Hezbollah, Iran’s heavily armed Shiite ally in Lebanon, Israel was wholly unprepared […]
Robert Williams Gatestone, Feb. 26, 2025 “Iran is using organized and violent criminal gangs to carry out serious attacks within Sweden. Sweden is not at war. But there is no peace either.” Iran’s terror axis, thanks to Israel’s military operations, is finally beginning to collapse. Iranian terrorist proxies have been seeming to disintegrate across the […]

Ynet News, Feb. 26, 2025 “This whitewashing keeps viewers ill-informed about Hamas and promotes sympathy for their deadly ideology. It signifies the institutional failure behind the BBC’s reporting of the Israel-Hamas conflict.” The BBC has been accused of “whitewashing” participants’ views in its controversial Gaza documentary by mistranslating references to “the Jews” and omitting praise […]
Rachel O’Donoghue Algemeiner, Feb. 18, 2025 “In a brazen display of false equivalence, Kuenssberg used the horrifying condition of the freed Israeli hostages as a springboard to push baseless allegations of abuse in Israeli prisons — a remark Herzog rightly called “outrageous” for its vile moral equivalence.” The media’s coverage of the release of the first […]
